Video control

<ContentControl x:Name="ExtraMetadataLoader_VideoLoaderControl" />

Video control Custom

This control is the same as the video control but can force to configure if the control can display controls or play sound

<ContentControl x:Name="ExtraMetadataLoader_VideoLoaderControl_Controls_Sound" />
<ContentControl x:Name="ExtraMetadataLoader_VideoLoaderControl_Controls_NoSound" />
<ContentControl x:Name="ExtraMetadataLoader_VideoLoaderControl_NoControls_NoSound" />
<ContentControl x:Name="ExtraMetadataLoader_VideoLoaderControl_NoControls_Sound" />

Video Playback controls for Fullscreen Mode

It's possible to create buttons that can interact with the video player controls:

<ToggleButtonEx x:Name="TrailerPlayToggleV" Width="60" Margin="0,0,10,0"
                Style="{DynamicResource TrailerPlayToggle}"
                IsChecked="{Binding ElementName=ExtraMetadataLoader_VideoLoaderControl_NoControls_Sound, Path=Content.SettingsModel.Settings.IsVideoPlaying, Mode=OneWay, FallbackValue={StaticResource False}}"
                Command="{Binding ElementName=ExtraMetadataLoader_VideoLoaderControl_NoControls_Sound, Path=Content.VideoPlayCommand}"/>

<ToggleButtonEx x:Name="TrailerMuteToggleV" Width="60" Margin="0,0,10,0"
                Style="{DynamicResource TrailerMuteToggle}"
                IsChecked="{Binding ElementName=ExtraMetadataLoader_VideoLoaderControl_NoControls_Sound, Path=Content.IsPlayerMuted, Mode=OneWay, FallbackValue={StaticResource False}}"
                Command="{Binding ElementName=ExtraMetadataLoader_VideoLoaderControl_NoControls_Sound, Path=Content.VideoMuteCommand}"/>
